Proving G-d’s existence

Question

How do we know that G-d exists? If it is our tradition that proves it…then how do we know which tradition is correct?

Answer

There are several ways to demonstrate his existence. First, one should look at the incredible precision that exists in nature. The likelihood of even part of the human body, for example, evolving, is so miniscule that it defies logic to think that it could have occured by accident.

Another way to demonstrate this is to see if we can prove that the Torah was given by a higher power. There are many books that deal with this issue, but the one that brings the clearest approach in a very readable format is “Beyond A Reasonable Doubt” by Rabbi Shmuel Waldman. Follow this link
